Eh? Not sure I take your meaning. You think it’s a mistake for Cruz to say what he said?

I call Ted’s idea a good start :>} Abandoning that concept under the Ford and Carter administrations is what started Middle East Tyrant Sponsored Terrorism. Those two buffoons took out the threat of ones engaging in and ordering terrorism from paying with their very lives.

Don’t we have a law against assassinating the leaders of other countries?

It’s not that I don’t share Cruz’s sentiment, but Cruz is bashing Carson as being unconstitutional for saying we shouldn’t put a muslim in the white house.

If Cruz is going to play the lawyer for something as obviously true as Carson’s statement, Cruz should play the lawyer full time and consistently.

Surprising.

You figure he’d absorb it without even trying.

I think if we bomb an enemy country and the leader(s) happen to die in that onslaught, would you label that an assassination?

Why, Mr Cruz, I do believe you’re flirting with us. Tell us more about how you’d kill the Ayatollah. Please don’t skip any details!

I believe to be completely legal about it, congress would need to declare war first. Then we can kill the Ayatollah.

IIRC, the ban on assassinating foreign leaders exists as an executive order signed by Gerald Ford in 1975. Would be difficult to codify into law, IMO.

Executive orders can be undone. Hope President Cruz does so in this case. The U.S. Constitution is not involved here.
